Terres des Amoureuses - Black Sublim 2011

14/20

Gault & Millau

"A deeper layer of spices and a lingering licorice note enliven this racy, proud cuvée, which is uncompromising in its progression on the palate. Drink it now before its wild side escapes!" (Les Meilleurs Vins de France 2015 - Gault Millau) Silky, round, and indulgent. A very fine cuvée!
